Drove past Tuscany region and along the way, we drove past the region of Chanti where famous Italian wines were produced to the staggering riches of Florence.
It was sunny yet cooling (am I contradicting? haha) We made a photo stop at Ponte Vechio, a historical bridge for superb view of the Arno River.
After which, we proceed to the old town of Tuscancy. For today, lunch wasnt included. While hunting for a place to dine, I took many photos of the shops.. Very appealling.. We had pizzas and pastas for lunch..Everything was so ex! the pizza wasnt fantastic.. was not hot at all and the pizza crust was hard! the pasts was alright. Can u imagine.. a cup of large coke cost 5 Euros ~ S$10.. gosh... Our lunch cost us more than 100 bucks.. and we had just one pasta, 3 small diff flavoured pizzas, a large coke and a coffee.. tts all for 100 bucks! G.O.S.H! their SOL is real high.. wonder how much will their salary be.. i suppose it would be at least thrice of us.. otw how could they survive?
After the dissapointing lunch, we visited the 3rd largest Cathedral.. the Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral. We also walked past the Door of Paradise.

Next, we tour the Piazza Signoria, the lordship square, unveiling sculptures done by famous Italian sculptors can be seen.
After dinner, we headed toward Arts Museo Hotel. We walked for many many hrs.. right from afternoon till evening.. luckily the weather was great. A cooling weather juz kept our mood good and made all the walkings fun.. (imagine I had to walk around in the afternoon with a temp of 30 degrees... tts maddness man)
